Author has written 6 stories for Naruto, Blood+, and Ouran High School Host Club.
Oh FanFiction. I've been gone from your so, so long. I missed your pixelated touches, the sweet ecstasy of being ensconsed in reviews and stories by my fellow authors, even the obnoxious writers' block that you always seem to send my way like a little virus.
Anyways. I'm back and full of the need to write, so hopefully I can crank out a few stories before this upcoming senior year has run its course. Remember, patience is a virtue; you'll probably need it on those occasions when it sort of (read: completely) slips my mind to update a chapter. And to those of you who are wondering what happened to my old stories, those pre-hiatus, I'm sorry to say I will probably be deleting them and, at the most, rebooting them to fit my new strengths and weaknesses in writing.
Less than three, readers. Less than three.
This is something I found simply wonderful, it inspired me in ways. Take it as an unrequited love, a deep and burning contradicting hatred, take it any way you will.
"A caterpillar weaves itself into a cocoon. Ages later, but still so sudden, it emerges as a butterfly. It dances in the sky, free free free... And then the net falls.
You see the cycle, try to break it.
The cocoon is brought home, the butterfly born in the cage. Freedom is in her blood, but not her home. She flies away, glimpses freedom, dies.
You see the cycle, cry over it, try something else.
One last cocoon, nearly ready to be shed. You hold it close, let her go, let her choose.
She is far from you, but free." -One a Day Calender by HanaTohruShipperMorgan.
New Things & Updating:
Secret Garden: Based off of the movie Howl's Moving Castle (not the book).
Preservation: I'll be re-writing this as soon as possible, for any of you who had actually been interested in this InuYasha story before.
Obscured Luminary: I'll be re-writing this one as well. Sakura plus a talented singing voice? Good heavens, what a match, yeah?
Hollow Reminiscence: This, out of all, shall be the one updated out of the things to be re-written. This was my first story, and it deserves my LOVE.
Blood: A Stitch in Time: This fanfiction is going to be all about Saya and Diva's mother, and the wonderful havoc that swirls around her mysterious self.
Unforgivable: I'm revamping this story, and more than likely giving it a new name. I'll be sure to post a link or something in the old story, so that those of you still interested (and willing to forgive my absence) can read it.
If you ever have any questions about a story of mine, or even a story of yours, feel free to PM. (:

Hi Women,
I hate to reply with the obvious yet, your doctor should have addressed this before you left his/her office. I suggest you call doctors office and ask this question, or better yet, call the chemist/pharmacist, as they seem to more than the docs do, and ask them your question.
Good luck.
Hi again,
I did a little search here on drugs.com, and there were several patient reviews which were positive. One said that it took 6 to 8 weeks to work, yet others said it took a shorter time to be effective than that.
Best wishes to you,

Located in Little India and surrounded by shops selling Indian clothes. Lots of variety of normal and vegetarian food. However the seating needs to be improved as it is hard to get a seat during lunch time.
This place was recommended by the hostess at Chew Jetty homestay as the best Indian restaurant in town. She was right on! We traveled to South India a few years ago and the food here was every bit as good as it was in South India. We had a fish Chettinad that was to die for. the mutton curry (goat) was really, really good. All the breads are freshly made right in front of the restaurant and were oh so good. We also went here a couple of times for breakfast and were not disappointed. If you go here, you will be one of the few tourists among many Indian locals...a good sign.
This is one of many options in Little India, and we found it to be a nice place for a quick bite at lunch. We shared one dish, and had a few cups of tea.Food was good and tasty, and the service was OK. There is smallish area as soon as you go in or a larger air conditioned room, both seemed OK. I probably wouldn't make a special trip to go there, but if you're in Little India, and feel puckish, then this place is a nice stop off.
I prefer the Sri Ananda in Tanjung Bungah. There seem to be far fewer rats. The banana leaf and pickle is good.
The best indian cuisine in Penang !! Breads are freshly made, curry chicken and best to be eaten in the morning; hot and spicy! Chicken varuval are the spiciest and the best in town :)

"Social networking-type applications will become as ubiquitous in the workplace as Microsoft Office tools and will likely replace e-mail as the dominant form of corporate communications." — Bill Gates Chatter is changing the way employees collaborate with one another. New, young sales reps grew up on the internet. This is how they communicate. This is…
We at GreatVines have been very excited about the rollout and promotion of Chatter on the Force.com platform. If you watched Superbowl XLV and the Halftime show, you saw animated videos featuring will.i.am, the Black Eyed Peas and Chatter. The time has come to change (no, revolutionize) how we collaborate and communicate within an organization….

Though I wasn't lucky enough to witness a live eruption of Mount Etna, a visit to the Alcàntara Gorge provided a striking example of the effects of such a catastrophic event. Around 4,500 years ago, Mt. Moio, a minor cone of Mount Etna, erupted violently and sent waves of molten lava rushing down toward the Ionian Sea. The magma crossed the chilly Alcàntara River, which had already carved a deep canyon through the surrounding limestone, and gradually cooled into a dense layer of black basalt. For at least a thousand years the river, which was much larger and more forceful than it is today, carved through the basaltic rock, leaving a 164-foot high gorge faced with tortured formations and basaltic stone columns.
Theories about how the formations occurred abound. One says that an earthquake occurred during the eruption, allowing the lava to spread out and cool quickly. Another theory is that the lava split into two branches, reuniting at the gorge, where a mass of cold clay soil caused the magma to crystallize instantly. I find both theories unacceptable. As a long-time rockhound and student of geology, I know that rock crystals result when cooling occurs slowly, not rapidly. The eruption most likely deposited a deep layer of magma that would have allowed the basaltic material to cool very gradually, allowing formation of distinctive hexagonal (six-sided) columnar prisms that produced "columnar basalt." Similar formations are found at Devils Postpile National Monument in California and Hegyestu Geological-Interpretive Site in the Kali Basin in Hungary. Read More
My fascination with volcanoes began more than three decades ago, with the eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington state. As the only major volcanic eruption in the contiguous U.S. in 65 years, it was a huge TV event. Before our eyes, mudslides turned hundreds of square miles of forest into piles of pick-up sticks in split seconds. Fifty-seven people and thousands of animals lost their lives. In the aftermath of the blast, which was equivalent to 1,600 times the size of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, images revealed a desolate landscape that resembled the surface of the moon. The enormity of it was so inconceivable that when Mount Saint Helens National Volcanic Monument opened in 1983, I hopped in the car to see for myself.
In person, the destruction was even more staggering. The newly paved road snaked through miles of giant splintered tree stumps protruding from a deep carpet of ash. Mammoth tree trunks lay like thousands of naked cadavers, lined up in painfully neat rows pointing away from the mountain, as if awaiting proper burial. Aside from the crystal blue sky, everything was endlessly and shockingly monochromatic gray. The inconceivable power of the volcano held me in its spell.
Fast forward to the Big Island of Hawai'i in 2002, where the volcano gods once again beckoned. On the Kilauea Iki trail, I descended 400 feet from the rim to the still steaming floor of the Kilauea crater. Signs stuck in fissures warned not to stray off the trail, as still-cooling magma lurked beneath areas of thin, unstable crust, yet the way was marked only by cairns of black rocks, set so far apart that they were difficult to locate. I picked my way across carefully, stopping at each rock pyramid to scan the horizon for the next one, before taking a step that might plunge through to super-heated material. Four miles later I climbed the opposite rim, elated that I had just walked across an active volcano. Later that same night I stood on a jagged field of razor sharp lava on a moonless night, watching a fiery red stream of molten lava pitch over the end of land into the ocean far below. Read More
The women began gathering at Varo Church late in the afternoon on Good Friday. Dressed in black from head to toe, with a medallion of the Madonna hanging from royal purple ribbons around their necks, they began final preparations for a Christian ritual that has been performed for centuries in the town of Taormina, Sicily.
In the center of the nave, a large icon of Mother Mary surrounded by white roses and lilies stood affixed to a gold leaf wooden table. At twilight, twelve female bearers would squat beneath long wooden poles attached to the blessed statue and rise as one. Down treacherous steps and cobblestone streets to the doors of the cathedral – the Duomo – they would bear her, where twelve fresh women would step in for the next leg to Santa Caterina church. And so it would go, from church to church, until the sorrowful Mother returned to Varo, where she would repose until the following year's Good Friday procession.
One of the bearers, Vera Bambara, explained the symbolism of the procession, which attempts to recreate conditions as they would have been in the time of Christ. "Our black apparel is a symbol of the grief of Mother Mary as she accompanied Christ during his agonizing walk to his crucifixion. We carry lanterns lit only by candles because there were no lamps in those days, and only women are allowed to carry the Madonna, because only women can truly know her tears." Read More
Years ago, when I was living in Puerto Rico, someone asked me if I drove there or flew. I laughed, assuming the comment was meant as a joke, but as I soon learned, this person was dead serious – he had no idea that Puerto Rico was an island. I was reminded of this incident while making plans to move on from Italy's Sorrentine peninsula to Sicily. When I told my Dad I was taking the train to Sicily he said, "You can't do that, Sicily is an island." In this case, I was not exhibiting geographic ignorance. From Naples, I boarded a train that took me to Villa San Giovanni, a small town at the tip of Italy's boot. Here, after a brief wait, my train was loaded onto a ferry, which carried us across the narrow strait to the Sicilian town of Messina.
The journey is a little tricky, because the 'official' destination of the train is Palermo, which is on the complete opposite side of the island from where I was going. In actuality, when the train arrives in San Giovanni the individual coaches are separated as they are loaded onto the ferry. Upon arrival in Messina the cars are reassembled into two separate trains, one destined for Palermo on the northwest coast, the other bound for Siracusa on the southeast corner of the island. So when boarding in Naples it is extremely important to get on the right carriage, or you might end up somewhere you don't intend to be.
It was a lovely ride through lush green countryside, punctuated by rolling hills and rocky escarpments, but the most fascinating part was at the ferry dock. I stood at the rear of my car and watched as it was uncoupled from the train and rolled onto tracks in the lower level of the ferry. Soon, we were pulling away from the docks for the short trip to Sicily. At this point, passengers are free to leave the train and go up on deck, but here again I need to offer a warning.

The song of the Sirens was too much for even Odysseus, so how could I be expected to resist? Some years ago I was raving about the beauty of Cinque Terre, five cliffside villages on the Italian Riviera in northwest Italy. Calmly, my companion turned to me and remarked, "If you think Cinque Terre is beautiful, you should see the Amalfi Coast." That was all it took. One simple mention and the Amalfi Coast was permanently branded on my brain.
I had only a vague idea where the Amalfi Coast was (somewhere in southern Italy) so imagine my surprise when I stepped off the train in Sorrento and found buses lined up, waiting to whisk tourists to Positano and Amalfi. With only one day left before my scheduled departure for Sicily, I had no choice but to visit both cities in one day. Having spent too much time in Amalfi, I was forced to rush through Positano, nearly missing the last bus of the day back to Sorrento. I made no local connections and saw only the most popular tourist sights. It was ridiculously unlike my normal travels, when I stay in places for weeks at a time to soak in the culture of places and ferret out stories to tell. Still, after my short visit I was captivated.

Luigi delivered the square, dark green bottle to my table, along with a basket of fresh-baked bread. From the unlabeled decanter I poured a quantity of extra virgin olive oil onto a plate, allowing it to spread languidly into a golden pool before sopping some up with a hunk of crusty bread. I closed my eyes and popped it into my mouth. The oil burst onto my tongue, at once fruity and fragrant, with a hint of acid. I nearly swooned; it was one of the most delicious varieties I'd ever sampled. But olive oil was just the beginning. Moments later, my table was covered with a selection of antipasti: beignets filled with artichoke and drizzled with balsamic vinegar, baked aubergine Parmesan casserole, polenta stuffed with artichoke and topped with smoked provolone, sauteed chard and green fava beans topped with sauteed calamari strips, and zappa di legume with fava beans and chickpeas.
Between bites, I gazed out picture windows to a panoramic view of Li Galli and Vitara islands, where Ulysses had himself lashed to his ship's mast in order to hear the Siren calls without being lost to them. Seated atop a mountain on Italy's Sorrentine peninsula, gazing out over a cerulean Mediterranean while surrounded by gourmet food, I suffered a similar seduction. I wanted to stay forever at Fattoria Terranova Farmhouse and Restaurant, a charming third-generation farm that has been converted to one of Italy's popular Agritourismo accommodations. Read More

As if the hot flashes and all the other annoying menopausal symptoms weren't bad enough, according to new research the real secret to losing those stubborn postmenopausal pounds is to avoid dessert. All dessert. For. Ever. (Pausing now for mass sobbing.)

The New York Times recently did a roundup of sugar substitutes, a timely topic in light of the fact that New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg recently proposed a ban on super-sized, 32-ounce …

Running Windows and Linux apps on the same desktop with OVD
Installing More Apps
Although the default set of apps is good for a wide variety of users, it surely doesn't cover all the bases. To install another app, head over to the Servers tab. If you have multiple Linux application servers, find the one you want to install the new app to and click on its FQDN or IP address.
Now you'll see a list of all the apps installed on the server, along with an empty text box under the Install an application from a package name section (Figure 8). To install an app, just type in its name in the text box (say, gqview) and click on the Install button.
To monitor the app installation, click on the Tasks tab, which lists all the active and completed tasks on all the servers. To get the details of a task, click on the ID (Figure 9). When the installation is complete, the app will appear under the list of available applications on the server.
Before users can access this app, you have to include it in an application group. Either edit an existing group or create a new one. That's it. The app is now available to all users in the publication that contains the application group that bundles the app.
Under the Web interface settings tab in the SM admin console, you'll find options for tweaking some aspects of the login screen. For instance, you can modify the heading title, replace the Ulteo logo with your own logo, or disable the drop-down list of users.
Other tweakable parameters that affect the user's virtual desktop are under the Session settings tab (Figure 10). For example, you can preset a default time out, after which a user is automatically logged out. If you want, you can let users use a console inside the virtual desktop or free up space on the desktop by disabling the desktop icons.
By default, Ulteo OVD allows users to share their desktop with other users. For this to work, you need to equip the SM with SMTP settings for your mail server. If you aren't running a mail server, you can also use Gmail's SMTP settings.
Once the settings are in place, users can invite others by using the Share desktop link at the top-right corner of their screen. If you select the Active option (Figure 11), the invited user will be able to take control of your desktop; otherwise, the visitor will be a mere spectator.
Finally, the load balancing policy comes into the picture if you are using multiple application servers. Under the Server settings menu, you can tweak factors, such as available RAM and CPU usage, that help Ulteo OVD balance the workload (Figure 12).
Ulteo's Open Virtual Desktop is the most promising open source interoperability tool to appear for some time.

The present invention relates generally to performance analysis and more specifically to methods for providing a multi-dimensional view of performance data associated with an application program.
Multi-threading is the partitioning of an application program into logically independent "threads" of control that can execute in parallel. Each thread includes a sequence of instructions and data used by the instructions to carry out a particular program task, such as a computation or input/output function. When employing a data processing system with multiple processors, i.e., a multiprocessor computer system, each processor executes one or more threads depending upon the number of processors to achieve multi-processing of the program.
A program can be multi-threaded and still not achieve multi-processing if a single processor is used to execute all threads. While a single processor can execute instructions of only one thread at a time, the processor can execute multiple threads in parallel by, for example, executing instructions corresponding to one thread until reaching a selected instruction, suspending execution of that thread, and executing instructions corresponding to another thread, until all threads have completed. In this scheme, as long as the processor has started executing instructions for more than one thread during a given time interval all executing threads are said to be "running" during that time interval.
Multiprocessor computer systems are typically used for executing application programs intended to address complex computational problems in which different aspects of a problem can be solved using portions of a program executing in parallel on different processors. A goal associated with using such systems to execute programs is to achieve a high level of performance, in particular, a level of performance that reduces the waste of the computing resources. Computer resources may be wasted, for example, if processors are idle (i.e., not executing a program instruction) for any length of time. Such a wait cycle may be the result of one processor executing an instruction that requires the result of a set of instructions being executed by another processor.
It is thus necessary to analyze performance of programs executing on such data processing systems to determine whether optimal performance is being achieved. If not, areas for improvement should be identified.
Performance analysis in this regard generally requires gathering information in three areas. The first considers the processor's state at a given time during program execution. A processor's state refers to the portion of a program (for example, set of instructions such as a subprogram, loop, or other code block) that the processor is executing during a particular time interval. The second considers how much time a processor spends in transition from one state to another. The third considers how close a processor is to executing at its peak performance. These three areas do not provide a complete analysis, however. They fail to address a fourth component of performance analysis, namely, precisely what a processor did during a particular state (e.g., computation, input data, output data, etc.).
When considering what a processor did while in a particular state, a performance analysis tool can determine the affect of operations within a state on the performance level. Once these factors are identified, it is possible to synchronize operations that have a significant impact on performance with operations that have a less significant impact, and achieve a better overall performance level. For example, a first thread may perform an operation that uses significant resources while another thread scheduled to perform a separate operation in parallel with the first thread sits idle until the first thread completes its operation. It may be desirable to cause the second thread to perform a different operation that does not require the first thread to complete its operation, thus eliminating the idle period for the second thread. By changing the second thread's schedule in this way the operations performed by both threads are better synchronized.
When a performance analysis tool reports a problem occurring in a particular state, but fails to relate the problem to other events occurring in an application (for example, operations of another state), the information reported is relatively meaningless. To be useful a performance analysis tool must assist a developer in determining how performance information relates to a program's execution. Therefore, allowing a developer to determine the context in which a performance problem occurs, provides insight into diagnosing the problem.
The process of gathering this information for performance analysis is referred to as "instrumentation." Instrumentation generally requires adding instructions to a program under examination so that when the program is executed the instructions generate data from which the performance information can be derived.
Current performance analysis tools gather data in one of two ways: subprogram level instrumentation and bucket level instrumentation. A subprogram level instrumentation method of performance analysis tracks the number of subprogram calls by instrumenting each subprogram with a set of instructions that generate data reflecting calls to the subprogram. It does not allow a developer to track performance data associated with the operations performed by each subprogram or a specified portion of the subprogram, for example, by specifying data collection beginning and ending points within a subprogram.
A bucket level instrumentation performance analysis tool divides the executable code into evenly spaced groups, or buckets. Performance data tracks the number of times a program counter was in a particular bucket at the conclusion of a specified time interval. This method of gathering performance data essentially takes a snapshot of the program counter at the specified time interval. This method fails to provide comprehensive performance information because it only collects data related to a particular bucket during the specified time interval.
The current performance analysis methods fail to provide customized collection or output of performance data. Generally, performance tools only collect a pre-specified set of data to display to a developer.
Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present invention overcome the shortcomings of the prior art by facilitating performance analysis of multi-threaded programs executing in a data processing system. Such methods, systems, and articles of manufacture analyze performance of threads executing in a data processing system by receiving data reflecting a state of each thread executing during a measurement period, and displaying a performance level corresponding to the state of each thread during the measurement period.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate an implementation of the invention and, together with the description, serve to explain the advantages and principles of the invention. In the drawings,
FIG. 1 depicts a data processing system suitable for implementing a performance analysis system consistent with the present invention;
FIG. 2 depicts a block diagram of a performance analysis system operating in accordance with methods, systems, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present invention;
FIG. 3 depicts a flow chart illustrating operations performed by a performance analysis system consistent with an implementation of the present invention; and
FIG. 4 depicts a multi-dimensional display of the performance data associated with an application program that has been instrumented in accordance with an implementation of the present invention.
Reference will now be made in detail to an implementation consistent with the present invention as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings and the following description to refer to the same or like parts.
Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present invention utilize performance data collected during execution of an application program to illustrate graphically for the developer performance data associated with the program. The program is instrumented to generate the performance data during execution. Each program thread performs one or more operations, each operation reflecting a different state of the thread. The performance data may reflect an overall performance for each thread as well as a performance level for each state within a thread during execution. The developer can specify the type and extent of performance data to be collected. By providing a graphical display of the performance of all threads together, the developer can see where to make any appropriate adjustments to improve overall performance by better synchronizing operations among the threads.
A performance analysis database access language is used to instrument the program in a manner consistent with the principles of the present invention. Instrumentation can be done automatically using known techniques that add instructions to programs at specific locations within the programs, or manually by a developer. The instructions may specify collection of performance data from multiple system components, for example, performance data may be collected from both hardware and the operating system.
A four-dimensional display of performance data includes information on threads, times, states, and performance level. A performance analyzer also evaluates quantitative expressions corresponding to performance metrics specified by a developer, and displays the computed value.
Performance Analysis System
FIG. 1 depicts an exemplary data processing system 100 suitable for practicing methods and systems consistent with the present invention. Data processing system 100 includes a computer system 105 connected to a network 190, such as a Local Area Network, Wide Area Network, or the Internet.
Computer system 105 contains a main memory 130, a secondary storage device 140, a processor 150, an input device 170, and a video display 160. These internal components exchange information with one another via a system bus 165. The components are standard in most computer systems suitable for use with practicing methods and configuring systems consistent with the present invention. One such computer system is the SPARC station from Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Although computer system 100 contains a single processor, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that methods consistent with the present invention operate equally as well with a multi-processor environment.
Memory 130 includes a program 110 and a performance analyzer 115. Program 110 is a multi-threaded program. For purposes of facilitating performance analysis of program 110 in a manner consistent with the principles of the present invention, the program is instrumented with appropriate instructions of the developer's choosing to generate certain performance data.
Performance analyzer 115 is comprised of two components. The first component 115 a is a library of functions to be performed in a manner specified by the instrumented program. The second component 115 b is a developer interface that is used for two functions: (1) automatically instrumenting a program; and (2) viewing performance information collected when an instrumented program is executed.
As explained, instrumentation can be done automatically with the use of performance analyzer interface 115 b. According to this approach, the developer simply specifies for the analyzer the type of performance data to be collected and the analyzer adds the appropriate commands from the performance analysis database access language to the program in the appropriate places. Techniques for automatic instrumentation in this manner are familiar to those skilled in the art. Alternatively, the developer may manually insert commands from the performance analysis database access language in the appropriate places in the program so that during execution specific performance data is recorded. The performance data generated during execution of program 110 is recorded in memory, for example, main memory 130.
Performance analyzer interface 115 b permits developers to view performance information corresponding to the performance data recorded when program 110 is executed. As explained below, the developer may interact with the analyzer to alter the view to display performance information in various configurations to observe different aspects of the program's performance without having to repeatedly execute the program to collect information for each view, provided the program was properly instrumented at the outset. Each view may show (i) a complete measurement cycle for one or more threads; (ii) when each thread enters and leaves each state; and (iii) selected performance criteria corresponding to each state.
Although not shown in FIG. 1, like all computer systems, system 105 has an operating system that controls its operations, including the execution of program 110 by processor 150. Also, although aspects of one implementation consistent with the principles of the present invention are described herein with performance analyzer stored in main memory 120, one skilled in the art will appreciate that all or part of systems and methods consistent with the present invention may be stored on or read from other computer-readable media, such as secondary storage devices, like hard disks, floppy disks, and CD-ROM; a carrier wave received from the Internet; or other forms of ROM or RAM. Finally, although specific components of data processing system 100 have been described, one skilled in the art will appreciate that a data processing system suitable for use with the exemplary embodiment may contain additional or different components.
FIG. 2 depicts a block diagram of a performance analysis system consistent with the present invention. As shown, program 210 consists of multiple threads 212, 214, 216, and 218. Processor 220 executes threads 212, 214, 216, and 218 in parallel. Memory 240 represents a shared memory that may be accessed by all executing threads. A protocol for coordinating access to a shared memory is described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/244,135, of Shaun Dennie, entitled "Protocol for Coordinating the Distribution of Shared Memory", which is incorporated herein by reference. Although a single processor 220 is shown, multiple processors may be used to execute threads 212, 214, 216, and 218.
To facilitate parallel execution of multiple threads 212, 214, 216, and 218, an operating system partitions memory 240 into segments designated for operations associated with each thread and initializes the field of each segment. For example, memory segment 245 is comprised of enter and exit state identifiers, developer specified information, and thread identification information. An enter state identifier stores data corresponding to when, during execution, a thread enters a particular state. Similarly, an exit state identifier stores data corresponding to when, during execution of an application program, a thread leaves a particular state. Developer specified data represents the performance analysis data collected.
A reserved area of memory 250 is used to perform administrative memory management functions, such as, coordinating the distribution of shared memory to competing threads. The reserved area of memory 250 is also used for assigning identification information to threads using memory.
The flow chart of FIG. 3 provides additional details regarding the operation of a performance analysis system consistent with an implementation of the present invention. Instructions that generate performance data are inserted into a program (step 305). The instrumented program is executed and the performance data are generated (steps 310 and 315). In response to a request to view performance data, performance analyzer accesses and displays the performance data (step 320).
Performance analyzer is capable of displaying both the performance data and the related source code and assembly code, i.e., machine instructions, corresponding to the data. This allows a developer to relate performance data to both the source code and the assembly code that produced the data.
FIG. 4 shows a display 400 with two parts labeled A and B, respectively. The first part, labeled A, shows the performance characteristics of an application program in four dimensions: threads, time, states, and performance. Performance information for each thread is displayed horizontally using a bar graph-type format. Time is represented on the horizontal axis; performance is represented on the vertical axis.
Two threads, thread 1 and thread 2 in display 400, were executing concurrently. As shown, the threads began executing at different times. The horizontal axis for thread 1 is labeled 402. Thread 1 began executing at a point in time labeled "x" on the horizontal axis 402. The horizontal axis for thread 2 is labeled 404. Thread 2 began executing at time "b". Each thread performed operations in multiple states, each state being represented by a different pattern. Thread 2 was idle at the beginning of the measuring period. One reason for this idle period may be that thread 2 was waiting for resources from thread 1. Based on this information, a developer can allocate operations of a thread among states such that performance will be improved, for example, by not executing concurrent operations that require use of the same system resources.
As shown, thread 1 entered state 410 at a point in time "x" on the horizontal axis 402 and left state 410 at time "y", and entered state 420 at time "m" and left state 420 at time "n". The horizontal distance between points "x" and "y" is shorter than the horizontal distance between points "m" and "n" . Therefore, thread 1 operated in state 420 longer than it operated in state 410. The vertical height of the bars show a level of performance. The vertical height for state 410 is lower than the vertical height for state 420, showing that states 410 and 420 operated at different levels of performance. The change in vertical height as an executing thread transitions from one state to another corresponds to changes in performance level. This information may be used to identify the affect of transitioning between consecutive states on performance, and directs a developer to areas of the program for making changes to increase performance.
The bottom-half of the display, labeled B, illustrates an expression evaluation feature of the performance analyzer's interface. A developer specifies computational expressions related to a performance metric of a selected state(s). The performance analyzer computes the value of an expression for the performance data collected.
In the example shown, the developer has selected state 440. The expression on the first line, "NUM_OPS/(100000*TIME)", is an expression for computing the number (in millions) of floating point instructions per second (MFLOPS). The expression on the second line, "2*_CPU_MHZ" calculates a theoretical peak level of performance for a specified state. Performance analyzer may evaluate these two expressions in conjunction to provide quantitative information about a particular state. For example, by dividing MFLOPS by the theoretical peak performance level for state 440, performance analyzer calculates for the developer the percentage of theoretical peak represented by each operation in state 440.
Methods and systems consistent with the present invention collect performance data from hardware and software components of an application program, allowing a developer to understand how performance data relates to each thread of a program and complementing a developer's ability to understand and subsequently diagnose performance issues occurring in a program.
Although the foregoing description has been described with reference to a specific implementation, those skilled in the art will know of various changes in form and detail which may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims and the full scope of their equivalents.

Remember, the book mentions Roddenberry did also try to squeeze money from Nimoy's recording career during the Trek years (as confirmed by Nimoy) yet made no such demand from Nichelle Nichols (as confirmed by her).
He probably negotiated an "under the table" deal with Nichelle.

Figure 4.
Friends. So this is two of my best friends. And so this is at lunch time when a lot of smokers do go for smokes as well. We find other ways to entertain ourselves. So they have their phones out, food, just talking. No need for cigarettes. And sometimes we study during lunch as well. Yeah. My friends don't smoke, I don't smoke. These are the people that I'm like really closely knit with. (Female, non-smoker, non-Indigenous, 15 years).

Woman Quits Job in Best Possible Way With 4AM Dance Video
Tired of a boss who puts quantity over quality, this woman decided to finally express herself...by quitting via dance video.
Tired of a boss who puts quantity over quality, this woman decided to finally express herself...by quitting via dance video.
Kanye West lashed out at paparazzi yesterday, and it wasn't pretty -- he even damaged the camera of one photographer who had the nerve to ask about a sequel to 'Watch the Throne.'
As is common with angry videos, however, it's lightening up -- with a remix of West's tantrum.
Finally! Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are parents, as Kardashian gave birth to the couple's first child, a daughter. The duo welcomed the baby into the world today, June 15.
When you have nothing to offer, you make a sex tape.
When you have the name recognition from a sex tape but nothing else to offer, you get a VH1 reality show.
When you finally realize you're completely irrelevant save for the same last name as a B-to-C-list singer, you release a song about your sex tape partner who got you your reality show.
Cue non-entity Ray J's new single, 'I Hit It First,' about Kim Kardashian.
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian may have even egos bigger than the latter's derriere, but that doesn't mean they don't have senses of humor about themselves.
Case in point? The rumored name of their Kimye spawn ... which we're hoping to God (more on that in a second) is a joke.
Kanye West may be taking the whole baby daddy thing just a little too far if we are to believe the tabloids. According to Hollywire (via The Sun), Yeezy is penning his own remake of Dr. Seuss's classics 'Green Eggs Ham' and 'The Cat in the Hat.'
With the year 2013 just hours in, we're all making our yearly resolutions and wishes to try and make the year as awesome as possible. While most of us can't predict our own futures, a psychic has made some predictions for a few of our favorite celebrities and musicians for the upcoming year, and they're pretty amazing to read.
Kanye West announced the pregnancy of girlfriend Kim Kardashian by stopping the painful auto-tune during his Dec. 30 show and referring to her as his "baby mama."
This also allegedly shocked Kim, who had to pretend she didn't know West was going to tell everyone about the little marketing opportunity growing in her uterus.
First she was his 'Perfect B----,' now she's his perfect baby mama. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting their first child!
Kanye West is known for his fearless stage performances but this one is for the record books. Yeezy kicked off his pre-New Year's Eve concerts on Friday (Dec. 28) in Atlantic City, N.J. wearing -- in our humble opinion -- the most outrageous headpieces we have ever seen this side of Lady Gaga.
Rumors of a 'Cruel Summer' follow-up project appear to be shaping up. A video, uploaded by filmmaker Austin Christianson, was posted online teasing a 'Cruel Winter' short film featuring Kanye West.
What's up with Kanye West? After deleting all of his tweets from his timeline for no reason, he returned to Twitter on Friday (Oct. 5) to salute Apple's late co-founder Steve Jobs on the one-year anniversary of his death.

"We figured if anyone was gonna cover Hallows Eve, it would be a song from their first two albums," says bassist James Genenz. "But we chose to go with something from their third album, Monument, as it's usually overlooked."

We're excited to see how our band will do internationally and are excited to visit parts of the world we may never get to see again, assuming our plane makes it there in one piece."

Adam Interviewed on The User Group Report -- If you'd like to hear a radio interview I did with Chuck Joiner of The User Group Report about our Take Control project and the new Take Control User Group Program we've started, head over the page below.

Open Files with Finder's App Switcher
Say you're in the Finder looking at a file and you want to open it with an application that's already running but which doesn't own that particular document. How? Switch to that app and choose File > Open? Too many steps. Choose Open With from the file's contextual menu? Takes too long, and the app might not be listed. Drag the file to the Dock and drop it onto the app's icon? The icon might be hard to find; worse, you might miss.
In Leopard there's a new solution: use the Command-Tab switcher. Yes, the Command-Tab switcher accepts drag-and-drop! The gesture required is a bit tricky. Start dragging the file in the Finder: move the file, but don't let up on the mouse button. With your other hand, press Command-Tab to summon the switcher, and don't let up on the Command key. Drag the file onto the application's icon in the switcher and let go of the mouse. (Now you can let go of the Command key too.) Extra tip: If you switch to the app beforehand, its icon in the Command-Tab switcher will be easy to find; it will be first (or second).

Bill Owens, the newly elected representative of the 23rd Congressional District, suggested today that he's ready to support the House health care reform bill under consideration Saturday - provided he's legally allowed to do so.
"As I indicated before, I think this is a historic movement forward," the Plattsburgh Democrat said during a Thursday stop in Watertown. "I think that it does many of the things that I thought needed to be done. There are some things that I'd like to see changed in the bill."
Admittedly, the media (including myself) didn't press him on what he'd like to see changed. But there's also some questions about if he'll be legally allowed to take part in that vote.
Mr. Owens is ahead by 3,770 votes according to unofficial tallies. It's certain he will ultimately prevail, but the absentees haven't been counted and the election results haven't been certified.
The Democrat thought there wouldn't be a delay in getting into office "seeing as Mr. Hoffman conceded." But is that enough? I just don't know.
Mr. Owens said he's awaiting word about the swearing-in process, adding he didn't even know if he was even going to be in Washington on Friday.
The Democrat hasn't heard from former Rep. John McHugh, now Army secretary, but he has talked to the House staff left behind to tend his office files. Mr. Owens doesn't know if he's going to get any of Mr. McHugh's files, but said: "I'm anticipating we'll have his full cooperation."
The congressman-elect said he hasn't filed any position besides his chief of staff - which went to Putnam County native Brad Katz - but his campaign spokesman, Jon Boughtin, accompanied him to Watertown today and appears to be helping him with press in the short term.
As for other tidbits, Mr. Owens said his conversation with Mr. Hoffman on Tuesday lasted only 40 seconds. He was non-commital when asked by WWNY-TV reporter Rachel Kent if he would pledge to debates in the 2010 campaign now, so that we didn't have a repeat of this election's lack of public discourse.
Meanwhile, here are the most up-to-date results. There are still nine voting districts in St. Lawrence, two in Lewis and one in Oneida that have yet to report.
Mr. Owens (D,WF): 66,526 votes (48.8 percent)
Mr. Hoffman (C): 62,756 (46 percent)
Dede Scozzafava (R,I): 6,996 (5.1 percent)
